FBI produziert Hackersaga

"Solar Sunrise Das Heraufdämmern einer neuen Bedrohung"
so poetisch können gesetzlich ermächtigte Behörden
werden, wenn sie sich als Filmemacher generieren, um der
Welt eine neue Großbedrohung einzureden und der
Notwendigkeit des heldenhaften Kampf gegen das Böse in
Gestalt dreier Buben, wie es der Analyzer und seine beiden
Adepten waren.

As part of an effort to sell industry on its nascent computer
crime investigation unit, the FBI has just completed an
entertaining, slick video detailing how they caught three
teenagers who were behind the famed February 1998
information warfare attack on at least 11 Defense Department
networks as the military prepared for a renewed war on Iraq.
..
The video, "Solar Sunrise: Dawn of a New Threat," recounts
how two California teenagers, coached by an Israeli teen
hacker known as "Analyzer," routed through scores of
networks to gain entry into unclassified Defense Department
networks that housed sensitive troop deployment and
logistics information.

The hackers started on Feb. 3 and were tracked down by
Feb. 25. The California boys are on three years of probation.
The Analyzer is under indictment in Israel but is currently
fulfilling his military service.

The video was publicly shown for the first at a cyberterrorism
conference in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday. ... Concern
exists in industry -- especially in the financial sector, where
public perceptions can immediately affect the bottom line - --
that bringing the FBI into a case of hacking increases the
chances the incident will leak out to the public. In many
cases, they have preferred to handle it with private security
firms.
